About the Artwork:
Fossegrimen is a water spirit from Norwegian folklore, known for his mastery of music. His melodies are said to echo the raw beauty of Norway's landscapes, and legend holds that by offering him food—traditionally Fenalår—at his waterfall, he might gift you the skill to play music as beautifully as he does.
In the artwork, I aimed to capture the essence of this mythic figure, drawing inspiration from the unspoiled natural beauty of Norway. The Hardanger fiddle, often associated with Fossegrimen, has a unique sound, thanks to its extra resonance strings that vibrate in harmony with the melody. These strings create a rich, ethereal sound, as if the instrument itself is alive, embodying the spirit of Norwegian nature.
For me, the Hardanger fiddle holds a deep connection to the Norwegian soul. A single note can evoke the fjords, mountains, and forests, pulling a person back to the land itself. In creating this print, I hoped to reflect that feeling—the intertwining of music, nature, and national spirit.
Fossegrimen is part of a broader tradition of pre-Christian water spirits in Norway, often associated with waterfalls. Despite attempts to demonize these figures during Christianization, they persisted in folklore. The Hardanger fiddle itself was even banned by the church for a time, thought to have the power to send people into trances when played by skilled musicians.
While making this artwork, I listened to "Den Blå Slotten" and "Gammelsteinomen" on repeat for inspiration. If you want to immerse yourself fully in the mood I had while creating it, I recommend giving those a listen.
